Kim Karadashian West? That must be his wife? Is she in the music biz too?
I went to her Twitter page (60 million followers!), and if anybody is interested,
I guess she has a "$15 Secret for Avoiding Stretch Marks"

I worked with a guy that would print out articles every morning to take into the bathroom for his morning poop.

stop stop im already dead

I'm going to wait for the book about the guy who makes sneering comments about the people that he spies reading Yerac's book.

I would not read either of those books! Just being honest 😝

Aw.

party pooper

If prog just means "radio-friendly mainstream rock perpetrated by people who have classical training, who have played technically complex music at various times in the past, and who are widely regarded as having 'chops' in the guitar-mag sense," then that is pretty meaningless.

..."grimace-inducing" describes your review more than the original CD, in which confident conclusions are unsupported by any clarity and obscene expressions (however softened by abbreviation) have no place.
"Busy Mom" are you? I hope for your community's sake that your parenting is more civilized than your music listening, writing, or good taste.

Another incompetent review by a sneering, busy mom who fancies herself quite the expert but reveals herself immediately as anything but.

sounds like she is more of a bad mom than a busy mom

Ugh... 'Happy' is playing on the radio and the only heartening thing about it is that finally it feels like we're coming out of that obnoxious faux-town craze that lasted wayyy too long.
But there's always going to be a 'Shit Trend' in pop music that exemplifies a particular time - usually it involves producers and artists jumping on an actually very credible idea, but pumping out as many watered-down versions as possible before the trend expires.
Right now, the extent reggaeton-lite fad is clearly becoming more than just a fad as it's been going on for years and recently reared its head with DJ Snake's 'Taki Taki'.
Is this the 'shit trend' right now? Or is there something more insidiously bland waiting in the wings? What other shit trends have there been in history, ones that despite being a bit shit seem to exemplify a two or three year stretch?

Is that a trend or just a one-off novelty hit though?

ALBUM BY BAND

Too low!

Haven't heard it!

This is so good!

I should listen to this when I get a chance.

Nice images!

join the fun! we need more dissenting voices

I would just post irrelevant jpgs -- I am trying to be less trolly

there are certain albums by bands coming up where i'd almost welcome that

just let me know when ... and whether you'd prefer enthusiastic small dogs, penises, or hitler

or c&p from wikipedia about an esoteric topic

^would enjoy, but lol i honestly can't encourage this behaviour as pollrunner. you will just have to psychically determine when is right

I'd be surprised if I have heard even 5 of these albums tbh

like I will probably know more of the musicians whose albums are rated than I will have heard the albums themselves

I don't know if there's anything productive in determining the relative moral merits of pedophilia vs. fascism - they are not the same thing and not equivalent imo.

I think it's a long tradition. Nixon, Joe McCarthy, they all had imitators.

Although it’s fair to say that Biden and the Obama administration shouldn’t have depended on republicans crazying themselves into unelectability without doing more to fix things like voter suppression for example.

Although it’s fair to say that Biden and the Obama admin as a whole shouldn’t have calculatedly depended on Republicans crazying themselves into unelectability without doing more to fix or even mitigate against things like voter suppression for example.

― “Big” Don Abernathy, Friday, 18 December 2020 09:27 (eight hours ago) link

how big of him to clarify that, as a whole

or even

MITIGATE

!!!!

Isn't that a wee bit presumptuous to claim your own personal pronoun? Additionally (s)he wants to be called in the plural, grammatically that is rubbish. What bewilders me there is that the Guardian immediately accepts and promotes this instrumentalisation of the language for a personal cause by reprinting it. Is there no public discussion about this kind of language intervention?

Record labels with female names.

lol - i feel like the aspect of the semantle thread where people c&p their results is kinda the low bar for lux levels (there are interesting things in that thread, but there is a lot of lux that is comparable to the thread map linked above)

I think I'd be more excited for a Kendrick Lamar album if I was still listening to any new hip hop, which I have stopped about the time of Untitled Unmastered. I don't think I remember anything from Damn except the annoying "Bitch, be humble" line. His number of features was also ridiculous at some point. But will be happy to listen to the new one about 15 weeks after everyone else because I still love everything he did up to TPAB.

We all have a personal connection to this conflict because our governments are spending billions on arming one side of it.
